Tile repair in Seghill, Northumberland
Chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles in Seghill, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
How we handle tile repair in Seghill
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northumberland. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Seghill
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Seghill
- Natural stone & granite
